| Zusammenfassung: | "A gripping Gothic tale of possession, pride and passion, Hilda Vaughan's Harvest Home, first published in 1936, is set in Abercoran on the south-west coast of Wales during the reign of George III. One fine morning Daniel Hafod rides home from England to become Master of Great House after the death of his uncle. But his obsessive pride and his dark desire for the pretty dairy-maid Eiluned lead to his downfall, as he and his sailor cousin, Dan, compete for her love. One of Vaughan's most appealing heroines, Eiluned herself strives to remain steadfast under pressure. Outstanding in its lyrical evocation of a bygone Welsh rural life, Harvest Home is also a tautly-written psychological study of a man driven mad by desire. It draws on tales of the wreckers then active on the Welsh sea-coast, the legend of Blodeuwedd from the Mabinogi, and superstitions associated with 'Nos Galan Gaeaf' (All Hallows' Eve). Hilda Vaughan's portrayal of Abercoran (an ancient name for Laugharne where she often stayed) vividly depicts its haunting estuarine landscape as well as weaving in some of the folklore associated with the area." back cover |
